Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

apparently it wasn't an engine problem.. if you look into what the teams and manufatures say there hasn't been an engine blow up for any team in about 3 years it's always some other problem

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

Am I the onyl one to find F1 so INCREDIBLY boring, now that Shuhi keeps winning?.... :zzz:

I can't stand him personally and think he's a terrible sportsman. BUT, he is the best driver in the world, and he's going to win the championship AGAIN...

Anyone else think he should retire after this season?

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

He should've stepped down and gone into another role within the sport

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

Why? He is the worlds best driver in the worlds best car. There are still records to break. It is up to the rest of formula one to catch up.

I hope he carries on for a few more seasons yet.

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

I don't think it's boring at all - okay, so Schumacher is miles ahead at the moment, but it's up to the other teams to catch up.

Yesterdays race was probably one of the best I've seen for a while - there were plenty of scraps thorughout the race (well done Button and Sato), and there were plenty of reasons why Ferrari are so far aheas - McLaren just don't have reliability at all and Montoya (it has to be said) was really unlucky.

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

While I can see he is the best driver, having one person win all the time does make the races boring. Either he needs to step down, or one of the other teams needs to start winning. I think, if his luck improves a bit, Montoya has a good chance of winning a few races.

I have heard that F1 is losing viewers by the million because one person is winning the whole time.

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

ohhh was there another F1 procession yesterday?

check out the nascar site and see how close the finish was AGAIN and after 500 miles

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

I'm one of them... I used to get up to watch the qualifying and race, regardless of time or country...now I'd rather go to the pub instead... :(

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

I've also given up watching it. :(

I find the comments regarding Michael Schumacher being the best driver interesting... How is it possible to judge who is the best driver when they drive different cars? :shrug:

Surely whoever is driving the fastest car will win? :)

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

Its only so close because of the re-starts that NASCAR have, for example in that race you mentioned, the last restart took place on lap 302 of 334!

If F1 brought the pace car out all the time to bunch the cars up it would be a lot closer too.

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

I would like to see F1 covered by a channel that covered every minute of every warm up session, qualifying session and race with no adverts during the race. Ideally with a Sky Sports type coverage with multiple streams available so you could watch your selection from the various struggles going on through the field.

What is wrong with people who want the best driver in the best car to step down. If it was a British driver in the same position would they still feel the same? Should we get Manchester United and Arsenal to stop playing football and take up origami tournaments in order to make the Premiership more competitive, not forgetting Celtic and Rangers who could join them and give other Scottish teams achance.

I was quite impressed with the live timing screens on www.formula1.com during the race which gave sector by sector and lap times for all the cars.

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

Yes, I would. :)

No, because it's never a forgone conclusion in the Premier League who's going to win until the last few fixtures.... This season has been an excellent example of that.

That is one I would happily forget, as it always is a forgone conclusion. I think both those teams should join the premiership.... that would make it interesting...

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

Nnnnnoooooooo - you just weren't listening to Norbert, were you? It was the gearbox, hydraulics, oil, or something Mika had for lunch. Nothing to do with the engine whatsoever, nothing, honestly ......

Re: Formula One Motor Racing
 

move to germany, they have coverage there, though i think its ppv. What we have is a lame excuse for tv which doesnt help viewing problems with muppets such as james allen. Check out the latest sniff petrol for a laugh about him
On a side note the live timing screen is quite good, its been around for a while now (over a year) though it crashed round about lap40 and was abit messed up for the next 5 laps, just when we wanted it to see how button was doing !
